Question

Yarin’s gross pay for the year was $3,500. The federal income tax withholding from his pay was 9% of his gross pay. Yarin determined the federal income tax he owes is $115. How much of a refund can Yarin expect?

Answer 1

Answer: $200

Explanation: Find the total amount of money the Federal Income taxed Yarin. Then, find the difference with what Yarin believes he owes ($115).

Step 1.) Find the actual tax amount in dollars. To find how much money is 9% of $3,500, you will convert the percentage (9%) to a decimal, then multiple the gross pay by the decimal.

1.) 9% -> .09

2.) 3,500 x .09 = 315

Step 2.) Find Refund. To find the refund, we simply find the difference between the Federal Income tax ($315) and what Yarin believes he owes ($115).

1.) 315-115 = 200

Result: Yarin can expect a $200 refund if he actually owes $115, since the Federal Income tax withdrew 9% of his gross pay which added up to $315.
